Patent EP-1138260-A3 (EP)
Inventor: LEE TSO MING
IPC: G01R33/48
Filed: 2001-03-19
Abstract: A method of detecting the occurrence of neuronal events in a brain with high
temporal accuracy and of distinguishing between contemporaneous neuronal events is
disclosed. In accordance with the illustrative embodiment of the present invention, two
or more stimuli are chosen and administered to a subject at a temporal interval apart.
Each stimulus causes a neuronal event in the brain of the subject, and if the two neuronal
events occur at the same time and at the same place, they interfere, which interference is
manifested by different physiological effects than are caused by either neuronal event
alone. When the interference is detected, the time interval between the first stimulus and
the second stimulus can be compared to a nominal range. If the time interval is outside of
the nominal range, then it suggests that a pathological condition exists. The illustrative
embodiment of the present invention comprises: stimulating a subject with a first
stimulus to cause a first event in the subject; stimulating the subject with a second
stimulus to cause a second event in the subject, wherein the second stimulus occurs at a
temporal interval, Δ t n   , after the first stimulus, and wherein the first event and the second
event jointly affect at least one characteristic of a first physiological effect at a first
region of the subject as a function of the temporal interval, Δ t n   ; and measuring the at least
one characteristic of the first physiological effect at the first region of the subject.

Abstract: The object of this invention is to provide an imaging apparatus capable of providing a high-quality image optimum for medical diagnosis or the like by an arrangement for preventing any degradation in image quality due to the influence of electromagnetic noise and vibration caused by grid movement. In order to achieve this object, as operation control in receiving radiation transmitted through an object by an image sensing element through a movable grid and reading the accumulated signal from the image sensing element, a control device stops moving drive of the grid after the end of radiation irradiation for the object, and after the stop of moving drive, starts reading the accumulated signal from the image sensing element.

Abstract: A suspension system includes a SMA suspension component, an actuator and a
controller. Altering the mechanical characteristic of the SMA suspension component
alters the kinematic properties of the vehicle wheel relative to the vehicle body and the
suspension characteristics of the vehicle. In one disclosed embodiment a SMA
suspension spring is height adjustable to alter the vehicle handling characteristics. In
another disclosed embodiment a SMA suspension component stabilizer bar is shape
adjustable. The SMA stabilizer bar is maintained in a first shape to provide a first
handling characteristic. To provide a second handling characteristic the SMA stabilizer
bar is moved into contact with a fixed vehicle component such as a vehicle frame
component. The flexibility of the stabilizer bar is thereby reduced and the vehicle
handling characteristics are optimized for a second condition.

Abstract: A display method includes obtaining three-times magnified image data, which is made
up of sub-pixels and with which the definition of a raster image to be displayed is
magnified by three in a first direction. A filtering process on the three-times magnified
image data is based on factors that are weighed in accordance to the degrees of
contribution to luminance of the three primary colors of R, G, and B. The weighted data
are allocated to sub-pixels of the three-times magnified image data that have been subject
to the filtering process. The sub-pixels are formed by the three light-emitting elements
that form a pixel to thereby enable the display device to display the image.

Abstract: A method is described for reducing the peak-to-average power ratio (PAR) of a
multicarrier signal in transmitter/receiver systems. The method comprises the steps of:
providing, in transmission, a digital signal to be transmitted
 
and subjecting
such a signal to be transmitted to a Fourier transform in order to obtain a modulated
signal
 
It is characterized by the steps of generating an anti-peak signal
(| Anti  -  peak   (     m     ) |); summing said anti-peak signal (| Anti-peak   (     m     ) |) with said
modulated signal
 
and transmitting the sum signal
 
The invention
provides a transmitter and a receiver for implementing the method. Through the use of
the invention, the PAR is reduced as compared with the known techniques.

Abstract: A parallel bilingual training corpus is parsed into its content words. Word association scores for each pair of, content words consisting of a word of language L1 that occurs in a sentence aligned in the bilingual corpus to a sentence of language L2 in which the other word occurs. A pair of words is considered "linked" in a pair of aligned sentences if one of the words is the most highly associated, of all the words in its sentence, with the other word. The occurrence of compounds is hypothesized in the training data by identifying maximal, connected sets of linked words in each pair of aligned sentences in the processed and scored training data. Whenever one of these maximal, connected sets contains more than one word in either or both of the languages, the subset of the words in that language is hypothesized as a compound.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for generating an artificial heat sink below ambient temperature
for a cryogenic condenser by isothermally magnetizing a paramagnetic fluid and removing the
magnetic field thereby creating a temperature drop in the fluid by the magentocaloric effect. The heat
of magnetization is converted into mechanical work by initially placing the fluid (10) inside a sealed
chamber (12) with a door that opens to a conduit (14) leading into the bore of a superconducting solenoid (18).
When the solenoid (18) is energized with current, it creates a strong axial magnetic (20) field that exerts
magnetic attractive forces on the fluid (10) inside the chamber (12). When the fluid (10) is released by opening the
door, it is accelerated through the conduit (14) toward the superconducting solenoid (18) where it becomes
magnetized by the increasing strength of the magnetic field (20). By mounting a non-magnetic turbine
inside the conduit (14) between the solenoid (18) and the chamber (12), the kinetic energy of the accelerating flow
stream, which is equal to the heat of magnetization, is converted into mechanical work thereby
achieving isothermal magnetization. By removing the magnetic field after the fluid enters the bore of
the solenoid, a temperature reduction is achieved thereby enabling the fluid to absorb heat in a
cryogenic condenser.
